A mesmerizing heartbreaking graphic novel of immigrant life on New York's Lower East Side at the turn of the twentieth century, as seen through the eyes of twin sisters whose lives take radically and tragically different paths.—Austin American-Statesman



"This graphic novel is dazzling, dramatic, and devastating."—Submitted by Annise B., Librarian
